We saw Liverpool did not experience much change in the squad with the new coach, I wonder how Arne Slot can compete in the Premier league with other teams.
Chelsea, not sure although they have a lot of players up to 42 with so many players have been signed, I don't think there will be significant changes.
Manchester United? Ten Hag will be under a lot of pressure.
It's too early to judge Liverpool with the performance that has been played during Arne Slot's time as coach.
Arne Slot is building the squad left by Jurgen Klopp and we are sure that slowly, Liverpool will become a team that is ready to break all doubts about it.
I actually doubt Manchester United. The performance of their mainstay players like Rashford still doesn't look like they have changed even though they had to lose against Manchester City at Wembley in the Community Shield.
Liverpool only replaced the coach without bringing in new players at this at this moment, but from the several friendly matches has they played, liverpool actually had a pretty perfect performance.
It was previously doubted that Arne Slot could make Liverpool better although currently they are only playing pre-season matches, but it seems that Arne Slot has great potential big in shaping Liverpool to be better next season with  his strategy and game scheme.

What is happening to Liverpool at the moment is actually the opposite of what is happening in Chelsea, Enzo Maresca is still unable to show a brilliant performance in the pre-season matches they are currently playing even though Todd Boehly has spent a lot of money to recruit many new players at this time, both teams have inversely proportional performances in pre-season matches.
But of course we cannot use pre-season matches as a reference to see the actual performance of the two teams next season. Talking about Manchester United, it seems like Manchester City defeat could be a reference to see how big their chances are in the league next season.
Pre-season matches are not a reference in measuring team performance at all, but it is also important enough to focus on before entering the competition. Liverpool have not made any breakthroughs in the transfer window, I think this is very strange because on average if the new coach will definitely bring in some new players to his squad, I don't understand Slot whether he has trusted all of Klopp's legacy squad? interesting, we wait for the Reds' breakthroughs this season. Meanwhile, Enzo Maresca is also enjoying his transition period and it seems he still hasn't found the right formula to make The Blues able to compete at the top of the EPL this season.

He must have been studying Liverpool long before his arrival when Klopp first announced his departure. It's probably not that he trusts Klopp's legacy, it's that he wants to play these particular players who may just have to be moved. Let's see what happens, last season was a very difficult season for them towards the end
